Distance Detection and Alert System With Arduino

This document describes a distance detection and alert system created with an Arduino, ultrasonic sensor, stepper motor, and buzzer. The ultrasonic sensor is mounted on a stepper motor to sweep its field of view and constantly measure distances. If an object is detected within 30 cm, the buzzer will sound an alert. The project uses these components along with 3D printed parts and code to create a system that responds dynamically to its surroundings.

Distance Detection and Alert System With Arduino

by jovanovski

This project represents a fascinating convergence of technology, utilizing an ultrasonic sensor, a stepper motor, and a
buzzer to create a system that responds dynamically to its surroundings. The core functionality of this project revolves
around the precise movement of a 35-degree rotating ultrasonic sensor, equipped with the ability to measure distances
with remarkable accuracy. As the sensor sweeps its eld of view, it constantly monitors the environment, measuring the
distance between itself and any objects in its path. The magic happens when this distance measurement falls within a
prede ned threshold of 30 centimeters or less, triggering the alert mechanism - a buzzer.
Supplies:

Arduino UNO R3
Arduino Cable
Ultrasonic sensor HC-SR04
Stepper Motor 28BYJ-48
Active Buzzer
Jumper wires 12x (10cm)
Bolts M3 x8
Drill bit (3 cm)

Step 2: Connecting the Electronics and Setting Up on the Housings

Red Wires - Power Supply for the component that is connected


Black Wires - GND of the component that is connected
Green Wire - Trigger from the Ultrasonic Sensor to pin number 7
Yellow Wire - Echo from the Ultrasonic Sensor to pin number 6
Blue Wire - In1 from the Stepper Motor
Purple Wire - In 2 from the Stepper Motor
Green Wire - In 3 from the Stepper Motor
Pink Wire - In 4 from the Stepper Motor
White Wire - The positive end of the Buzzer to pin number 12
Brown Wire - The negative end of the Buzzer to GND

NOTE: The stepper motor in the simulator is described as a 8pin header, because Tinkercad doesn't have Stepper Motor or Driver
compactible for this project !
